my fren who went there said..
it was practically an actual town with actual people......with kids
and all.....
the stryker unit there had to go to a 6 mth arab course before hand
to learn customs and language....
they spoke perfect arab,........
they cried when the SG soldiers flew back to Singapore...citing
that:
They might not noe when they might see them again
That they might be dead in the future
hope u guys understand the 2 points.....the soldiers there cherish
life very much and they don't noe when is their time to
go,....
their mentality was also...
why walk all the way and tire ureself....fitness wasnt really much
followed by that unit.....my fren quoted a US officer
saying....when somebody is shooting and trying to kill u....u would
really run for ure life....
their method of clearing rooms is also far different from the
SAF...just go in and go with the flow using speed and
aggression...clearing room to room quickly without wasting
time...
